SINGULAIR® SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
<br />Rivaling the performance of the most advanced wastewater
<br />treatment plants in the world, the Singulair system complies
<br />with USEPAwastewater treatment guidelines for secondary
<br />treatment systems and meets all requirements of NSF/ANSI
<br />Standard 40. In ecologically sensitive areas, the most
<br />stringent effluent standards are 10 mg/L CBOD and 10 mg/L
<br />TSS. Rated Class 1 after successfully completing the 6
<br />month Standard 40 test protocol, the Model 960 system
<br />averaged effluent of 6 mg/L CBOD and 10 mg/L TSS.
<br />The Model TNT system averaged effluent of 4 mg/L
<br />CBOD, 9 mg/L TSS and 12 mg/L Total Nitrogen and met
<br />all requirements of NSF/ANSI Standard 245.
<br />OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS
<br />The Singulair system is designed to treat only domestic
<br />wastewater. Domestic wastewater is defined as the waste
<br />generated from a typical residence. This includes flows
<br />originating from: bathtubs, clothes washers, dishwashers,
<br />drinking fountains, water coolers, food grinders, kitchen
<br />sinks, lavatories, mop basins, service sinks, shower stalls,
<br />sinks, wash sinks, water closets and whirlpool baths. While
<br />the use of bio -degradable detergents is recommended,
<br />the Singulair system has been designed to handle any
<br />reasonable amount of bathroom, kitchen or laundry waste.
<br />However, some care should be exercised to insure that
<br />non -biodegradable and/or toxic materials are not disposed
<br />of via the domestic wastewater plumbing. Do not use
<br />the plumbing system for disposal of lint, cooking grease,
<br />scouring pads, diapers, sanitary napkins, cotton balls,
<br />cotton swabs, cleaning rags, dental floss, strings, cigarette
<br />filters, rubber or plastic products, paints and thinning agents,
<br />gasoline, motor oil, drain cleaners or other harsh chemicals.
<br />These items could plug portions of the plumbing and/or
<br />adversely affect system performance. Never connect roofing
<br />down spouts, footer drains, sump pump piping, garage and
<br />basement floor drains or water softener backwash to the
<br />domestic wastewater plumbing or the treatment system.
<br />Water softener backwash will interfere with biological
<br />treatment and must be disposed of separately.
<br />ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
<br />Each Singulair control center must be wired to a dedicated
<br />115 VAC, single-phase circuit at the main electrical service
<br />panel. A 15 amp circuit is recommended (10 amp minimum).
<br />A pictorial wiring diagram is provided inside the control
<br />center enclosure. All electrical work must be performed in
<br />accordance with the requirements of the National Electrical
<br />Code and all applicable local codes. Electrical connections
<br />should be made only by a qualified electrician following
<br />proper procedures and using safe tools.
<br />CAUTION: Any time service is required, first shut off
<br />the dedicated circuit breaker in the main electrical
<br />service panel. Next, shut off the power switch in the
<br />Singulair control center. Failure to do so could result
<br />in personal injury or equipment damage.
<br />SINGULAIR® AERATOR
<br />The aerator has been specifically designed for use in the
<br />Singulair system and includes special alloy and molded
<br />plastic parts to prolong aerator life. Aerator bearings are
<br />pre -lubricated and sealed. Singulair aerators are installed
<br />in a concrete mounting casting above the aeration chamber.
<br />Fresh air enters the aerator through four intake ports located
<br />under the aerator handle. The air is drawn down the hollow
<br />aspirator shaftwhere it is introduced below the liquid surface.
<br />Only the molded plastic aspirator and the lower portion of
<br />the stainless steel aspirator shaft are submerged.
<br />The aerator is not designed to run under water and will
<br />automatically shut off if a high water condition occurs. If
<br />the liquid rises to the level of the foam restrictor, the control
<br />center will shut off power to the aerator. Next, an automatic
<br />diagnostic sequence begins, as outlined in the section titled
<br />"Service Pro Control Center".

<br />Each Singulair aerator is a precision engineered
<br />electro -mechanical device. Do not remove it from its
<br />installed position. Do not attempt any type of repair.
<br />Contact your Singulair service provider if service is needed.
<br />Unauthorized tampering or repair will void important
<br />provisions of the limited warranty and exchange program.
<br />FRESH AIR VENTING SYSTEM
<br />An aerator vent assembly is cast into the concrete access
<br />cover above each aerator. The vent assembly supplies
<br />fresh airto the aerator, which is drawn through the aspirator
<br />and into the wastewater. Finished landscaping should be
<br />maintained six inches below the top of the vented access
<br />cover and graded to drain runoff away from the cover.
<br />Do not allow plants, shrubbery, mulch or landscaping of
<br />any type to restrict the flow of air to the vent assembly or
<br />obstruct the access cover.
